8 3 How to Assess Mitral Regurgitation on Echocardiography Step by Step Guide for Echo Students

This lesson was created to make MR finally click for students, new techs, and anyone preparing for their RDCS or RCS exams. If you’re learning echocardiography, this is step-by-step, board-friendly lecture. Ideal for ARDMS/registry prep, students, and early career sonographers wanting practical Doppler tips, measurements clinicians use, and real echo clips that make grading MR easy to understand. What you’ll learn (timestamps): 0:27 — Define Mitral Regurgitation (MR) and clinical relevance 1:01 — Causes of MR (rheumatic, degenerative, ischemic, functional) 3:48 — Rheumatic fever: pathophysiology and its relation to MR 5:20 — What murmur is heard with MR? — important for ARDMS/registry identification 5:40 — Complications of MR (heart failure, atrial enlargement, pulmonary hypertension) 7:02 — Preload vs Afterload — key hemodynamics you must know to interpret MR 7:31 — Signs, symptoms & treatment options for MR 11:35 — What MR looks like in 2D echo — practical image-based examples 13:10 — M-mode findings with MR — simplified and exam-relevant 14:26 — MR severity scale on Color Flow Doppler — how to grade clinically 17:15 — Video clips differentiating trace → severe MR (visual learning for fast recognition) 18:06 — Continuous Wave Doppler: waveform interpretation and use in MR assessment 18:43 — Measurements physicians use for MR assessment (EROA, RVol, RF, vena contracta) 20:16 — Formula to estimate left atrial pressure from the MR gradient (practical tip) 21:21 — Pulse-wave Doppler mapping (historical method — good to know) 22:37 — PISA (Proximal Isovelocity Surface Area) explained step-by-step 23:26 — Flow convergence, Vena Contracta & EROA made easy — calculation tips and pitfalls 26:33 — Pulmonary vein assessment in MR — what to look for and why it matters 28:52 — Normal Doppler flow at the mitral leaflet tips and in pulmonary veins — comparison clips This lecture distills exam-relevant facts and real echo examples into an easy, actionable format so you can recognize MR severity confidently on echo and answer ARDMS/registry questions with clarity.
